Meet your School Counselor & School Counselor In Training!
Hello! My name is Savannah Wilkerson. I grew up in Marietta, GA and attended school in Cobb County. In high school, my favorite classes were music, art, and musical theater (the combination of both)! I have always loved to draw, sing, and express emotions. I enrolled at Kennesaw State University in Kennesaw, GA in 2009, and there I fell in love with the opportunities within learning and higher education. My sophomore year I became a research assistant in an Infant Studies Lab and conducted experiments to determine how young children develop communication through their emotions. I started working at a preschool teaching as well as nannying children of all ages, and by the time I graduated with a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Psychology I accepted a job working in my old high school's counseling office. After a year I went back to graduate school at Georgia State University to get my Masters in Education (M.Ed) in Professional School Counseling. After working in the high school setting as a counselor, I accepted my position at Barnwell as your Elementary School Counselor! This year will be my sixth year here. :) My professional influences are Brene Brown and Mister Fred Rogers. In my free time, I enjoy being with my husband, family, and friends. I enjoy watching television and singing music any chance I can get! |
